Don't let fear stop you.
The AED was designed to guide you step-by-step. It tells you exactly what to do.
When SCA happens, your willingness to take action could save a life.
Because an AED only works if someone uses it.

Sudden cardiac arrest doesn't give you time to prepare once it happens.
The actions you take beforehand can help you respond quickly and confidently when every second matters.
Be prepared before you're needed.

Sudden cardiac arrest is a race against time.
Every minute without using an AED decreases the chance of survival by 10%.
That's why calling 911, starting CPR, and using an AED as quickly as possible are so important.

One of the biggest misconceptions about AEDs is that you have to decide whether someone needs a shock.
You don't. Simply follow the AED's voice/visual prompts.
#TakeAction #AED #CallPushShock #ParentHeartWatch
AEDs were designed for people with little or no training.
Turn it on.
Listen.
Follow the voice and visual prompts.
The AED will guide you step by step.

The biggest barrier isn't always access to an AED. It's hesitation.
Don't let fear stop you from acting. Immediate action gives someone in sudden cardiac arrest their best chance of survival. 鉂わ笍
